Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "We cannot immediately judge a person's character by their actions and it does not reveal who they are. We get the sense that they put on a show of proper behavior, while feeling true, unpopular feelings only on the inside. Mrs. Mallard's response to the news of Mr. Mallard's death simultaneously proves how different she is from other women and yet how she seems to truly, honestly mourn her husband."

Pronouns in the objective case may function as __________.subjects
objects
adjectives
predicate nominatives

Answers

Pronouns in the objective case may function as objects. When it comes to the parts of speech used in the objective case, the only function they can have is that of the object in a sentence. That object can be a direct object, an indirect object, or the object of a preposition. These pronouns thus cannot be subjects, because then they would be in the subjective case. Pronouns cannot be adjectives, and predicate nominatives are only nouns, which pronouns are not.

objects

is the answer.
